Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Single Shots New 22 Hornet brass

I am curious if anyone has ever had any brand of 22 Hornet case that would not chamber easily. I was sighting in a new scope and fireforming some brass today - Hornady, R-P, Win and PP. All, except the PP, chambered normally. I could feel friction feeding the Prvi cases by hand. It was a new barrel cleaned and abiding by the Single Shot Chambering Act of 1899.

I measured the outside diameter of several PP, Win and R-P loaded cases. The Prvi measured .002 larger. This is not a problem. I just never had this occur before. When I got home, I measured a bunch of cases and the PP necks are a couple of thou thicker. Rather than turn them, I will use the PP cases for my K-Hornets.

Such fine lines!
